The Complete Malcolm X on DVD: http://malcolmxfiles.blogspot.com/

"Recently when I was blessed to make a religious pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca where I met many people from all over the world, plus spent many weeks in Africa trying to broaden my own scope and get more of an open mind to look at the problem as it actually is, one of the things that I realized, and I realized this even before going over there, was that our African brothers have gained their independence faster than you and I here in America have. They've also gained recognition and respect as human beings much faster than you and I. Just ten years ago on the African continent, our people were colonized. They were suffering all forms of colonization, oppression, exploitation, degradation, humiliation, discrimination, and every other kind of -ation. And in a short time, they have gained more independence, more recognition, more respect as human beings than you and I have. And you and I live in a country which is supposed to be the citadel of education, freedom, justice, democracy, and all of those other pretty-sounding words. So it was our intention to try and find out what it was our African brothers were doing to get results, so that you and I could study what they had done and perhaps gain from that study or benefit from their experiences." Malcolm X makes it plain that he is opposed to the philosophy of Martin Luther King.

  • MOST INFLUENCED BLACK AMERICAN EVER!!!

  • @Pgprince86 I was just joking, but you are correct. I dont believe in race pride. I dont see in color, I treat everyone exactly the same, I see hygiene before I see color

  • Any means but JESUS! Oppression,injustice not an issue.

  • El Hajj Malik El Shabazz may Allah be pleased with your efforts in ISLAM! Ameen.... Following the teachings of the NOI give you structure but it doesn't follow the true principles of Islam. The thought of Allah coming in the person of Master Fard Muhammad is just flat out shirk.

  • "The american so-called negroes must be ressurected by any means necessary" - Message to The Black Man, by Elijah Muhammad 1965. Elijah Muhammad made Hajj(pilgrimage) to Mecca, Arabia in the 1950's. Malcolm poor guy he was hurt and he could not handle the hypocrites in The Nation of Islam. I said hypocrites. There are many true believers in The Nation of Islam, then and now.

  • How articulate this Brother was!? Even better than Barrack Obama"

  • @Macidelik11 You may be right, but did you hear what you said? Predominantly black Church, my question is why are there still the proverbial WHITE CHURCH or BLACK CHURCH, they say the most segregation hour in America is 11:00 on Sunday morning. ) The Bible distinctly says, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Just like race religion has become a major factor which divides us rather that unite us.Nothing has changed in this Nation

  • Im guessing they didnt have AC in that building, much like all prodominantly black baptist churches

  • Powerful!!!
